Iranian media is reporting that its country's military has captured a US ScanEagle drone that was flying in its airspace.

Reuters explains that a ScanEagle drone—a small, endurance UAV commonly used for reconnaissance—was gathering infromation over Gulf waters when it entered Iranian air space. It was then, apparently, captured by the naval unit of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps. The Iranian Fars news agency has reported that the drone was captured "in the last few days", but there are no further details about when or how it was caught.

The ScanEagle, manufactured by Boeing, is a pretty cute little thing: four feet long with a 10-foot wingspan, it cruises at a speed of about 60 knots.
